Broccoli as a meal?

I am persuaded that broccoli is good for me, but it leaves me cold. Literally, I steam it, put it on the plate, with some butter or olive oil and garlic, roll it around, then put the leftovers into the fridge until I can throw it away again.

But I am trying to build more meals around veggies. I have learned to love sweet potatoes (mmm-baked then dressed with feta cheese, hot peppers and cilantro), squash (mmm-with tomato sauce, sage butter or ginger-marmalde) and mushrooms (mmm-just about anyway you can imagine).

Want to grow a superfood at home? Broccoli sprouts are a huge healthy win. Baby broccoli contains 50 times more sulforaphane than broccoli. Sulforaphane does a ton of good stuff, like lowering cholesterol, combatting inflammation, and fighting cancer
